The “Good” Bad Guy

In this podcast, we discuss what makes a “good” villain, and what makes a “bad” villain. We then take a dive into the writing differences and creative choices that were made to create the villainous characters (Stain, Steppenwolf, Prince Hans, Mother Gothel, and Mr. Glass) from popular franchises like Disney and Marvel. We also touch on how a movie’s target audience impacts a villain’s story, motives, and overall character.
